@thecabbagedetective Miranda is correct that the “Placeholders” setting in the output panel means we can all render together and Blender will automatically render only frames that have no place holder (i.e. haven’t begun rendering). Without that we would all have to organize and communicate to avoid duplicate renders.
@dostovel If samples are too low, denoising can definitely muddle the final image quality. I’m doing a test now at 500 samples + denoising and I will compare. No denoise takes 1hr 25min on my machine. That’s long even for my old computer ha. It’d be ideal if we can get it down to 30 min or else we’ll be rendering for a long time or need a bunch of volunteers.
